Author Topic: Phuggin Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 04-03-2002 01:49 AM                        There are a lot of times during the day when it is necessary to use the word "fucking" or "fuckin'" to describe something. That's great and all, but "fucking" really isn't hip, is it? So what do I propose to remedy this extremely dire situation, so that we may remain hip and trendy? Simply use the word "phuggin" instead! Works great written down and shows everybody that U R tight bangin' yo. So you can now say things like "Phuggin Technicolor" and be hip instead of vulgar.  |  IP: Logged Mike Olpin Chop Chop!

If anyone (e.g. a distributor 'phoned up) asked him what it stood for, he'd reply 'no flippin' good'. I don't think anyone was left in any doubt as to the real meaning.  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 04-03-2002 08:55 AM                     Years ago, when I was a kid, there used to be a laundry detergent named "Duz". Back then the competition for the market was stiff. Along came a new detergent named, "Phug", trying to muscle in on their market share. Their slogan was: If Duz don't do it, Phug it!  |  IP: Logged Joe Beres Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 606 From: Minneapolis, MN, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 04-03-2002 10:24 AM                     I think that Benecio del Toro used that 'phug' quite a lot in The Usual Suspects. no?  |  IP: Logged Dwayne Caldwell Master Film Handler Posts: 323 From: Rockwall, TX, USA Registered: Apr 2000 posted 04-03-2002 10:29 AM                     Phuggin A. ------------------ The man with the magic hands.  |  IP: Logged Bob Maar (Maar stands for Maartini) Posts: 28608 From: New York City & Newport, RI Registered: Feb 2001 posted 04-03-2002 12:56 PM                        I know a cat that uses the "Phugin" word. However we call him a "Pussey".  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 04-03-2002 02:01 PM                        Richard Pryor has a comedy routine about two competing laundry soaps on one of his early albums...."Fugg" and "Sugg." "If ya can't Fugg it...Sugg it!"  |  IP: Logged David Favel Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 764 From: Ashburton, New Zealand Registered: Feb 2002 posted 04-03-2002 04:16 PM                     Why use a word when the original has so much mure balls. When I drop the big one people have no doubt about my mood.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 04-03-2002 05:25 PM                        Simple! Because it is more important to be hip! Being hip is more important than friends, family, disease, war, peace, Snickers bars, you name it! If you can't be hip you might as well just shoot yourself.  |  IP: Logged David Favel Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 764 From: Ashburton, New Zealand Registered: Feb 2002 posted 04-03-2002 06:11 PM                     Hip, Hip you say Yesterday my daughter bullied me into buying phuggin flares. I hoped I had seen the last of those bloody things way back when "keep on trucking" was hip. Shit I'm now so hip I'm bigger than Oprah.  |  IP: Logged Ethan Harper E-dawggg!!!
